It's not unusual for dwm.exe to use significant VRAM, especially with dual monitors. Your setup with two displays could increase memory demand.

DWM.exe, also called the desktop window manager, handles visual effects and graphics. When you want a more stylish taskbar or dynamic wallpapers, it can consume a significant portion of your VRAM.

I haven't activated any features, just a standard background image and basic performance options for Windows.

It seems unusual. Are you viewing a Windows background or a file you saved? Restarting your device might help fix the problem.

I'm using a version he got from his dad on his phone, which means it isn't very high quality. Every time I turn on my computer, it uses about 1.5GB of VRAM even when idle. That's really odd...

Sure. Just double-check for malware and confirm your software is current.
